She loves me. Fuck.
I leaned forward again, took her hand in mine, and curled my fingers around hers. I waited until she looked at me. “I love you, Bailey. I think I fell in love with you when I saw you standing on my doorstep and my heart started beating for the first time in my life.” I heard her gasp from behind her hand then she lowered it.
“This is insane, right?”
I slowly shook my head. “No, it’s perfect. It’s right. I know you felt it to. I saw that on your face earlier today. You felt the pull, the chemistry. There’s no denying it.”
She shook her head now. “It’s undeniable.”
I wanted to show her right then and there, with my words, my hands, my mouth and tongue… my cock, that I meant every word I said.
My dick throbbed, my balls drew up tight, and I clenched my free hand into a fist on top of my thigh.
“Bailey.” I said her name slowly. “Come here.” I couldn’t help myself. Maybe I should have spent tonight only talking with her, not wanting to do anything more, but hearing her say she loved me did things to me. Possessive and crazy things.
And I knew I couldn’t stop myself. And the way she looked at me told me she didn’t want to stop this either.
Chapter Six
Gavin
She came to me instantly, and I growled low in approval. I liked that she listened, that she needed me just as much as I needed her and couldn’t help herself.
When she stood in front of me, I wrapped my arm around her tiny waist and pulled her forward, made her sit on my lap. And then I just stared at her. Her eyes were big and blue, framed by dark lashes. Her hair was deep brown, falling over her shoulder, looking so silky I had no doubt if I touched the strands, my fingers would glide right through them.
“You want me?” I asked, although I could see the way her breathing changed and that her pupils dilated. She wanted this pretty fucking badly. At least it’s not just me then. “Tell me, Bailey. Tell me you want this just as badly as I do.” I lifted my hand and cupped her cheek, sliding my finger and thumb to her chin. “I need to hear you say it.”
I was lost in my arousal for her. It had been building this whole time, and I was liable to get off just from having her on my lap. And as she stayed silent, I inhaled deeply, my chest brushing against hers we were so close to each other. “Come on, baby girl. Tell me,” I whispered, urged. I’d been looking at her lips as I spoke then slowly trailed my gaze up to look into her eyes. I knew she was ready for me, her body primed to take what only I could give. She didn’t have to say the words for me to know that. I could practically smell it in the air, this sweet surrender that was only for me.
And then I heard it, this little sound that came from her. It was one of desire, of her submission to me, to this.
I took my free hand and lowered it to the hem of her shirt, pushed the material up slightly, and felt how warm her skin was.
“I want this. I want you, Gavin,” she finally said, and I clenched my jaw so hard my teeth gnashed together.
For a second, I just let my fingers brush gently along the patch of skin I exposed, staring into her eyes, waiting for her to lean in and kiss me. The anticipation and excitement of what was about to happen, that I’d finally have Bailey again, raced through my veins. I needed her so damn badly I could taste it.
“Gavin,” she said and closed her eyes, shifting on me slightly as if she needed some friction.
I curled my fingers under the hem of the shirt and slowly started to lift it up.
“You’re so fucking beautiful,” I murmured and looked down at her stomach that was being revealed.
“I want you,” she finally said, the words nothing more than a breath of air from her parted lips.
I snapped my head up and looked into her face, letting her know I was right here with her. I leaned in close, so my mouth was right by hers. “I want you too, Bailey. Fuck, baby. I want you so damn much I’m afraid I won’t be able to control myself once I finally have you again.” I went for the button of her pants, and because I was lost in my need for her, my brain fuzzy and working on instinct, I only then realized I couldn’t get her naked in the position we were in.
